Maybe we will meet new characters, she will get a new internship/job, a new therapist? The pet cemetery was scraping the bottom of the barrel...this is what folks do with a free afternoon? Well, since the first part of the episode is about her leaving the “tour” I would imagine the will give some airtime to her “reasons”: Babs health, some tug-of-war with Todd for BGDC, the pretend boyfriend, Whitney “helping” the pregnant lady.

It goes into an escrow account, and the mortgage company pays it from that account. So WE are responsible, but the mortgage company acts as our agent. It also ensures that the mortgage company knows the taxes are being paid . . . kind of like a car financing company wants a little protection and stays on the title until it's paid off so they're notified if the insurance lapses. That is how it is done here, too. Also in Georgia, where we own a second home. Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/64636-s05e01-rescue-me/page/4/#findComment-3930385

The Whit that I have seen is lazy, entitled, mean, jealous, inappropriate bully with a poor temper, narcissism and generally unpleasant personality. Point taken. I guess I wax nostalgic for what this show might have been - a story about a young, confident woman making strides to make herself healthier (if not necessarily smaller) and interacting with her fairly harmless group of friends. But you're right, she half-assed it and feels like her peons (i.e.-friends) need to bow to her every whim. She's an obnoxious theater kid given too big a stage.

There was an awful lot of photos and "homey touches" for it to have just been starting and there's no way it would all fit in one tiny suitcase. I suspect she left it all for some PA to clean up. She really enjoys shit stirring. Todd doesn't have to run everything past you when you are "away". Be happy that he's keeping your name alive. And the forcing interaction between Buddy and Heather is just rude. Let them work out their own shit. It's not your business. She likes to fondle her friends.

aliya January 3, 2018 Share January 3, 2018 Jeez Louise. I didn't know this was the new season. I just happened on it by mistake. Buddy looks awful. The young woman is probably well rid of him. Is it a millennial thing to need to share everything about your self and your relationships with everyone in your group? I wanted them to just shut up about everything and deal with it. Wanna keep dating? Fine. Wanna stop? Fine. Just stop talking about it. And yeah, Whit quit the tour because she couldn't keep up and because it was probably necessary for the show. No way I would have driven so far to pick her up. She wanted to quit, let her find a way home. The planes and buses leave everyday, even from Indianapolis. That's what an adult does when she makes a decision. They could have picked her up at the airport. Who is this Avi guy? Was he on last season? Word to the wise, Whit. When a guy comes right out and says he's a commitment phobe, you can take that to the bank. Where is he? Why hasn't he met her parents if the relationship is serious? Finally - she looks huge. Just huge. 8 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/64636-s05e01-rescue-me/page/4/#findComment-3932500
